Creating a web-application
- Create on the disc an empty folder in which will be contained web-application resources on IIS using Windows Explorer. The path to this folder will define the parameter [Physical path] to the folder (catalogue) in which is situated the application content. In our example this is the folder BMWebApp which is situated on physical path: C:\Project\RanetBI\BMWebApp. The folder name can be any one; it is such in the example for copy convenience of resources and web-application setting on IIS. See the resources description in the document section Ranet Analytics resources;
- Open IIS Manager Console;
- Add a new application on the site on command [Add Application…]. Change settings in the dialogue window:
